GB GONE Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 Almost every hard bait you see has a kill spot on it. Should our plastics have one too?? I'm sure plenty of you guys have experimented with this but I don't see a lot of baits with them in the plastics line. Curious to hear some feedback on this as I've been able to pour some sticks, worms etc. real easy with a spot of black or red at one end to mimick that spot you see so often on a crank.

badfish03 Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 I've also wondered about this frequently, but since i am just now getting started pouring I am very curious how you apply them. I've got a low-melt gun that can apply stripes and dots and such but I have,nt tried it out yet. So care to tell me how you go about this?

civicdx Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 that would look pretty sweet on a stik with eyes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GB GONE Posted January 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 Badfish: I just pour a shot of red or black in the part of the stick or bait I'm pouring. Not very sophisticated, just trying to get a color difference there. I've experimented with the glue gun thing (terrible) and putting in a disc or something ultimately screws up the action or weight of the bait. May use a Senkosam technique and just draw/paint them on. I think the kill spot is very important in cranks so I'm going to experiment with plastics and weigh in later :!: Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
